Mykonos Island Vacations

Famous for its extraordinary nightlife, Mykonos Island Greece, with its picturesque capital and its fine and lively sandy beaches, is an island all its own. A unique destination, Mykonos finds itself to be the most cosmopolitan of the Greek Islands.

A tangible sense of joie de vivre permeates throughout the island of Mykonos: Locals are proud to call Mykonos home and relish in its beauty, while vacationers from throughout the world soak up their opportunity to visit such a beautiful destination. The beaches of Mykonos are an experience in themselves, and exceptional public transportation provides easy access to these fantastic locations that are worth a bit of a trek. Paradise Beach, Super Paradise and Elia are superb destinations for fun-loving travelers. For those looking for a bit more reserved and peaceful beaches, Kalo Livadhi and Paranga are excellent go-to's, as they are much less crowded and far more remote.

Mykonos Town itself is an adventure. Navigating through the town's maze of streets will leave even the most confident navigator befuddled. That is the fun of the town though, with some streets less than two yards wide, one will feel like a child in a field of corn, ducking down corners only to arrive at someplace one has never been, without the slightest sense of how to return. Everyone seems to find their way back; take your time and enjoy the incredible sights.
